Ok, waay past time 4our USA 2focus on American interests, particularly loong time domestic disasters like little transparency, $pending, corruption and accountability including direct reward/punishment. Interestingly, even our game-changing Tea Party openly demands cuts in our generous foreign aid, Defense spending (USA alone exceed$ total world), domestic focus and other radical, albeit appopriately correcting, loong time American behaviours. Then appropriately, blame yourselves all the many next times ur behaviours cause inevitable disasters, eh?
2. #1 - Obama's actions have caused problems.
Sandra ,   NYC   (09.21.11)
Obama gave the "Palestinians" pre-conditions for talks. It was a huge mistake. The worst thing is that he made the mistake in 2009 and then repeated it in 2011. Talks are done for good now, probably. He was inexperienced in foreign affairs and he made a costly blunder. Obama himself is going through problems over this, too.
3. Blaming USA
Wiz ,   Canada   (09.21.11)
You would steep so low to blame the country that has given everything and i mean everything to Israel. Take some responsiblity for your govenrments status quo and repeated embarrasement of US envoys
4. hussein obama

tried to bring israel on its knees by forcing it to make concessions to the PA (accepting the two state solution- freezing the construction in judea and samaria and east jerusalem for two years- removing the roadblocks to facilitate the life of the palestinians- accepting the 1967 borders as a base for the negotiations and more ) at the same time he didnt pressure abbas to do anything or to fight terrorism and incitement obama did all of that to bring israel on its knees to appease the islamic world and to bring the netanyahu government down so a leftist livni led government elected in israel to make the far reaching concessions Abbas said in an interview with the germany newspaper der spiegel that he demanded a construction freeze because the americans did so , so how he can concede something the americans demanded israel to do ??!!! obama is a disaster and he must be out by 2012 i hope israel victory at the UN shalom
5. Acually its because we support your..
Richard ,   Seattle America   (09.21.11)
worthless country how much money has the US wasted on Israel? What do you produce? Lobbyist? Double standards? Spies? greed? crybabyism? If we just let the Arabs waste you no more problem for us and a lot cheaper in the long run. You are a parasitic country that has done so much damage to my country with your lobbyist buying favor with money we send you ingreats. Pay for your own security pay for your own social programs stop denying people the right to be a human being.
6. Mr. Shoval's Quote at the end of the article
Chris ,   Dallas, America   (09.21.11)
Jews, Christians, Muslims, Arabs, etc. have had eyes on this bit of turf well before Uncle Sam was born. And when Uncle Sam is adrift at sea looking for other places to do biz and to conquer, they'll still have a massive focus on this bit of turf. At some point this larger perspective will come into play, as it always does for Big Powers who find their way into the Middle East.
7. Yesssssssss.
Salma ,   Palestine   (09.21.11)
we have nothing to lose.
8. Stupid article. Palestinians have only themselves to blame
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (09.21.11)
The Palestinians continue to be their own worst enemy.
9. Everybody to blame except Israeli crybabies?
dovid ,   los angeles   (09.21.11)
10. USA to blame -sort of
Steve ,   USA   (09.21.11)
As soon as Obama made the huge ignorant era of 1960's lines; he completely ruined any hope of peaceful settlement on this. US needs to veto to listen to Russia or any other nation now against Israel, is a technical agreement that Israel has no rights to exist. However, come on; when the whole region is against Israel; is it US to blame only? I'm so it is not the blame lies at the foot of the lie of Islam. sorry

15. Don't Blame America Blame Domestic Enemy Obama
Greycoat ,   Tampa, FL   (09.21.11)
Don't Blame America Blame the Kenyan adopted as a 10 year old new Indonesian citizen Obama. Most of America hates Obama almost as much, if not more so, than the Muslim Brotherhood. This guy is a destroyer, a betrayer, a liar, a usurper, and a Marxist.
